Wi-Fi 6 Boosts Quality and Security for Mobile Operations
The newest wireless standard arrives just in time as organizations equip their teams for remote work.
It doesn’t happen often, but occasionally a major technological advance comes along at just the right time — for instance, when devices compatible with the IEEE 802.11ax wireless standard (or, Wi-Fi 6, the latest upgrade in wireless networking) come on the market just as a pandemic forces a massive shift to remote operations.
Wi-Fi 6 is more than a slight upgrade. The newest wireless standard offers faster data transfers, higher capacity and greater power efficiency that could extend battery life by 30 to 50 percent. Users will experience better performance on any Wi-Fi 6-enabled device, but optimal performance occurs when connecting over Wi-Fi 6-enabled routers and access points.
Here’s why Wi-Fi 6 is an ideal fit for today’s mobile-first operations — no matter where users are located.
